Stacy Juba and Aurora Rose are My Guests

Stacy Juba got engaged at Epcot Theme Park and spent part of her honeymoon at Disneyland Paris, where she ate a burger, went
on fast rides, and threw up on the train ride to the hotel. In addition to
working on her Storybook Valley chick lit/sweet romance series, Stacy has
written books about ice hockey, teen psychics, U.S. flag etiquette for kids,
and determined women sleuths. She has had a novel ranked as #5 in the Nook
Store and #30 on the Amazon Kindle Paid List. When she’s not visiting theme
parks with her family, (avoiding rides that spin and exotic hamburgers) or
writing about them, Stacy helps authors to strengthen their manuscripts through
her Crossroads Editing Service.

Character
Interview

Beverley: What’s your name?

Aurora:Aurora Rose Callahan, but I prefer to be
called Rory. My parents named me after Sleeping Beauty, so you can understand
why I prefer Rory. . .

Beverley: Where
did you grow up?

Aurora:I grew up at
the Storybook Valley fairy tale theme park in the Catskills of NY. My family
owns the theme park and it was a daily part of my existence. Although I love
it, I wanted my own identity and spent a lot of hours in dance studios.

Beverley: During
what time period does your story take place?

Aurora:It takes
place in present day right around my twenty-fifth birthday.

Beverley: What’s
your story/back story?

Aurora:I’m a dance
instructor for one of the most competitive dance schools in the region, and come
from a quirky family obsessed with fairy tales. I’ve been dancing most of my
life.

Beverley: Why
would someone come up with a story about you?

Aurora:Let’s see…my
grandmother dresses up as Fairy Godmother, my grandfather is obsessed with
liberating garden gnomes, and my parents name their kids after fairy tale
characters.I’m one of the only normal
Callahans, somaybe that’s why there’s a story about me
as I bring some normalcy to the chaos.

Beverley: What’s
your goal in this story?

Aurora:I suppose
that I have a couple of goals. The first is to figure out my mess of a love
life. I’ve been seeing this medical resident who seems perfect for me, but then
I met this guy, Kyle, who works for the local zoo. Our grandfathersare arch
rivals. Kyle is everything I’m not - confident, easygoing, andspontaneous. My
other goal is to figure out my mess of a career. I hate my jobas it’s constant
pressure and takes the fun out of dance. My boss only cares about winning.

Beverley: What
conflicts are you facing?

Aurora:If I go out
with Kyle, my family will be upset with me due to thelongstanding feud. I
don’t even know if a relationship with him could work as we are sodifferent. I
also have been thinking about opening my own dance studio,but the idea scares
me. What if it fails? I don’t like my current job, but I’m doing well there and
it’s safe. Well, maybe not safe for my sanity.

Beverley:Do you have a plan for resolving them?

Aurora:Eventually,
but it takes a while! That’s why I’m Sleeping Beauty. I need to wake up and
come to my senses.

Beverley: Is
there anything else you’d like us to know about you?

Aurora:If you could
use some laughs and are in the mood for a funny and sweet beach read, then I
hope you’ll check out Prancing Around
With SleepingBeauty. I think you’ll also enjoy reading about my brother
Dylan in Fooling Around With Cinderella,
though I still have trouble picturing him as a Prince Charming...

Blurb: Prancing Around With
Sleeping Beauty (Storybook Valley #2):

Dance
instructor Rory Callahan, named after Aurora from Sleeping Beauty, likes to
play it safe. When she meets Kyle, he’s impulsive, persistent, and herexact
opposite. He’s pushing her to tango way past her comfort zone and keeping Rory
on her toes more than twenty years of dance teachers everhad.Kyle wants to change her whole life, but Rory
doesn’t like the stakes. After all, perfect princesses are the ones who get the
happy endings. . .aren’t they?

Nice resource you have pointed out here. I am one of your regular follower of this site, and it seems its authority has increased a lot in last few months. Every dictionary which placed in here http://www.bestparaphrasingservice.com/our-services/ is really important to know stuff as those things could be negative or positive but they are effective.
